Preparing for baby


"I holdin sissy"



All clean. She looks good in purple. Much to my surprise, I love pink.



Daddy love.


Hi there.


This bath feels good.


Ciara is doing well again today weighing in at 3 lb 13 oz. She is gaining weight beautifully. On Tuesday she decided that she did not want her feeding tube in anymore so she yanked it out. Luckily she has been nippling great since then and she has not had to have it back in. Corey and I have been preparing for her homecoming. Today we cleaned like crazy and put her crib together. We are still not sure exactly when she is coming home, but we want to be prepared. I got to bath her today and she really seemed to enjoy it. Afterwards she just laid there while I took a couple of pictures and then she fell asleep. She did have a belly ache when I first got there and a lot of gas. She was doing better as the night went on. Aaliyah visited her today with her Poppa and Mammy. She is so smitten with her sissy and wants to help me feed and burp her. She is so fascinated with the burping part. It is so funny! She told me she wants sissy to come home. While she was coloring she asked her sissy to color with her. I told her that she is a bit young to be coloring but someday they will color together. As you can see in the picture she got to hold her sissy and she was so happy! At first she didn't know if she was allowed to touch her but then she got used to her and gave her a hug and a kiss. Thank you for all of your prayers for our little girl. Please pray that she continues to do well so she may be well enough to come home with her family. God is good!!!
